Description
This lesson introduces genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and genetically modified foods. It covers the history, techniques, benefits, and concerns related to GMOs.
It explains that GMOs are organisms that have been genetically modified in a laboratory to have specific desired characteristics that are not naturally present. The process of genetic engineering is described, including techniques such as using a gene gun or modified viruses to introduce new DNA into plants. It emphasizes the need for further research to determine their long-term impact. Students are encouraged to form their own opinions on the topic.
In this environmental science lesson, students watch a short video, read an article, and then complete worksheets that prompt them to consider the impact of genetically modified foods.
